Here you will find each unit's vocabulary for the year. As new vocabulary is posted, you and your classmates will be in charge of looking up the new vocabulary using an (online) Spanish-English dictionary (DO NOT use Google Translate), adding a picture to each new word, and writing a way to remember each word ON YOUR OWN WIKI.


Step 1: Create a New Page on your wiki. Label your page with "vocab" and the unit number (ie "Unit 1 Vocab" or "Vocab for Unit 1").
Step 2: Copy and Paste the vocabulary list from this wiki to your new page. There are times that we may also type it together as a class.
Step 3: Look Up the definition, part of speech, and a picture.
Step 4: Enter all information for each new word. You don't have to use a chart, but it may be easier to organize.
Step 5: Create a link on the unit vocabulary page. Title with your name and the unit number.

Jugo has the same first 2 letters as juice. It is a "cognate."

Jugo ends in an "o" so it is easy to remember that it is masculine.
